Cookout is close! Any major plans?

[Swifty1638]

I have gone WOT actually..and it pulls decently...but it's half the boost this gas can run, and it also doesn't shift well(meaning in the next gear it breaks up, sounding like a subaru-just needs more time spent tunning up top)

I have been trying to tune this over a few weeks now, but stupid shit keeps popping up, like BnS running outta gas (now they have some) and rain, then MAP not finishing off their new dyno cell so I can finish the tune!

Tonight's plan:
1. Tuck main wiring under intake mani - DONE
2. Get rid of the oil coating the entire engine bay - DONE
3. Remove silver heat shield on hood - DONE
4. Change custom flexy hose to a real lower radiator hose
5. Fix MAJOR oil leak from bottom center stud on manifold
6. Go drink with Peter

EDIT: I left my tools in Maple Grove so 4 and 5 have to wait until tomorrow.

Oh yea and I'll have Paco with me.

I've brought turbo to the cookout for the last several years, but now I have TWO beagles and Anna's out of town...can't decide if I should bring them or not....
I plan on bringing Titan along with.

I moved all my crap out of the house and put it in the garage, i didn't think i would be selling anything at the swap meet/dyno day, but i have enough stuff to where it takes up as much room as sams civic, my car is ready and its gonna be.

I'm going to change the oil and filter tomorrow, and probably give it a hand wash.


As if it'll help it look any better...

I got my engine bay sprayed down with cleaner and a hose, scrubbed all the bugs off my front bumper, got most of the tar off the skirts...

She looks better than when I bought her, I can tell ya that!

But tomorrow night I'll have to clean off cone scuffs...

Fuel feed line is now broken. Fukshitpiss

Looks like I'll be rocking the Scummit at the cookout :(

The car is detailed :)

My evo is all clean! Thanks Hughes for the help/handwashing lesson! :D

Installed new radiator hoses last night and this morning, detailed engine bay and finally cleaned up all the oil overspray I had from my oil feed line. Then detailed wheels, handwashed, claybared, handwashed, waxed, and cleaned windows. I try and keep my car pretty clean, but it feels SO GOOD to get it *this clean* at least once a year.

well just got back from the Dyno Challenge and took second over all. I think the evo has 370+hp in it easy, showed up with a couple minor mods and too low of boost. First pull was only 25 psi, turned it up but not enough on the second pull and it made 26 psi, third pull i turned it up again and made just under 28 psi and 361.8hp. Not bad for a third pull :)

Talon got some kind words I feel the $7500 price is reasonable. Felt good to drive it.

Thanks to Cher for driving it today.

Now I need to detail the evo for the show. Man the rims are dirty!
